I am absolutely addicted!!!!! I saw your post here about your engagement and wedding and couldn't resist reading it. When I read the part of how God was in the small things, I loved it. I am a great believer that God is in even the smaller things we deal with. If I lose something and cannot find it, when I am trying a new project and can't figure it out, etc. I always ask God to help me and even though it may take a minute or a few days, I always find the object, instruction, the way to do something, etc. what I am looking for. My husband and I have been married for 40 years this coming April and he is also a Retired Navy Veteran. We raised 2 girls who I think turned out pretty good. My oldest is married to a great guy and they have 9 kids. (Yes, they are all theirs and I love all the kisses and hugs when we visit.) Our youngest daughter is happily single and the mother of Pickles, my granddog. She has bought her own house and works hard for what she wants and needs. She does not want kids and we are okay with that. Of course, eldest daughter has made up for that...LOL! <br /><br /><br />We are childhood sweethearts, born only 7 days apart, (for 1 week out of a year, he is a whole year older than me) as our parents were good friends before we were born. He always said he was going to marry me and we never really dated because we moved from Philly when I was 3 or 4 years old. Our families would visit each other at least once yearly and Hubby and I would write to each other all the time. Our first childhood date was Disney's Pinocchio and our first grownup date (age 17) was (Drumroll please...., yes, wait for it....) Star Wars!!!! The very first SW movie ever made. So, I am sure you figured out our age. LOL Due to his military service, he was a jet mech, we couldn't go to all the SW movies together, but we have seen the newer ones since he retired. For our 25th Anniversary, because I am a SW LEGO freak, he got me the Imperial Star Destroyer set. Some people think that was weird but it shows that he knows what I like. We have had many ups and downs but we work on our problems instead of giving up and throwing our love away. We were 18 when we got married and a lot of people said it wouldn't work. Well, guess what, 40 years later, we are still together.

It's amazing how things that are meant to be just have a way of working out. :) <br />Those are amazing finds for some amazing prices, particularly the crusher cap which is VERY collectable! A complete WWII Army Air Corps uniform with minor condition issues for $80 would still be a great deal. How wonderful for you to find this one in pristine condition. I think the original owner would be happy to knew it's in good hands. :)<br />-Emily<br /><br />Emily's Vintage Visionsvintagevisions27https://www.blogger.com/profile/16769861744181538664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-62836285139749136902014-01-31T04:02:12.827-06:002014-01-31T04:02:12.827-06:00That is such a heartwarmingly fantastic story!
